This week we have been focusing on folate as the nutrient of the week. In the last post you learned how much folate you need and where you can find it. As I have mentioned before, I am a big believer in meeting your nutrient needs through diet. This recipe helps you focus on folate and meet your daily needs and uses fresh seasonal vegetables!

This is a great seasonal pasta recipe. My husband loves Fettuccini Alfredo, but I don’t like to make it because it is high calorie, and high in fat.This is a great substitute for a white cream sauce and uses seasonal vegetables! We already have fresh asparagus in Maine and soon we will have fresh peas from the garden. This is a delicious light pasta that is packed with flavor and folate! Enjoy!
